1. A splicing ring for tubular high-pressure fluid conduits, comprising:
an inner metal ring formed of two independent and identical band halves having opposing side edges, wherein said opposing side edges are folded downwards at a right angle, an O-ring having a characteristic ring shape and profile, and opposing perimeter edges, and two metal protective bands, each preformed in a U shape, wherein the U-shaped metal protective bands receive and cover the opposing perimeter edges of the O-ring, and wherein each of the U-shaped metal protective bands abut against one of each of the downwardly folded side edges of the inner metal ring so that said O-ring is positioned between the downwardly folded side edges of the inner metal ring and rests upon ends of two tubular high-pressure fluid conduits to be spliced. |
